I like that lamp in the background. You’ll shoot your eye out. My favorite Christmas movie. I just did a 212 non hemi build. I did your governor removal like this vid shows along with a flat top piston, aluminum flywheel, mod 2 cam, 22mm carb, 22pd springs and a header pipe. I’m not going to be pushing this engine really hard so I hope the rod will hold up. I have a billet rod and flywheel and a 265 cam 24mm carb I’m putting in another engine I just got from harbor freight along with other stuff I have to order. Your videos really help alot.

Greg that was brilliant mate, the time you and becca must have spent on filming that , stop starting for angles to shoot the best shots from to the Voice over and explanation of everything then the Hours spent in Editing it to a finished video. A Huge thankyou for all that work I think that you have a excellent tutorial for a lot of people to refer to ( IF you could even buy a Predator engine in Australia it would be handy Lol) In watching that I thought of something you are lacking and might want to incorporate into your tools How about building a Multi Mount Engine stand at the right height (AND weight to stand the vibrations) for you to work on it . This would be, when you finish an engine, you can mount it to the stand for the run in period instead of waiting for a suitable frame or Kart to put it in it would make it easier to fine tune the engine on the stand, adjust anything and also do the first oil change after the run in period etc You then have a completely finished engine on the shelf or ready to be used immediately you have, what ever it is you are putting it in. Saves the back in bending over, and standing on the engine, while you are trying it out just after the build ! Grin who mate maybe a saleable Item for other Engine builders out their ?
